Kazungula, Zambia - A road and rail bridge linking Botswana and Zambia was inaugurated on Monday, marking the completion of a multi-million-dollar project aimed at easing congestion at border crossings throughout the southern African region.
"This will lower the cost of doing business," Zambia's President Edgar Lungu said at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, anticipating"an increase in trade and competitiveness, job creation, tourism and other positive ripple effects".
